    You know it, $530 billion in the pension fund so far....10% growth yearly on capital thanks to great managers. 4% of this goes to subsidizing the budget yearly, keeping a healthy budget surpluss. couldn't be happier with where i was born tbh.

  3. Wow half a trillion and 10% with STIRs at 25bp.

    I agree. I make it to Stockholm once a year or so. High prices in NOR but an even higher standard of living. My granddad had some textile co back in the day and would always say he needed to 20 new hires as only 10 would show up for work.

    lol, I read that as either A there was a huge demand for labor or B the rest were busy cashing welfare checks. after all we do have a very liberal welfare system so I'm used to people critisising it :p

  7. I can say so as my ancestry is also from an inured welfare state. I butchered my granddad's adage... "If I need ten I hire twenty..."

    Thats how it goes... anyways it's 1AM here now, time to hit the hay... Again atticus your help is much appreciated, hope you stick around these forums for the time being, despite what certain idiots want...referring to that argument on page 9-10 somethig....Personally I've only been trading options for 3 months now and am constantly learning, and you're a valuable resource for that to not just me, but to many people on here. So again, much appreciated

  10. Received a PM about B/E on the upside of the pitchforks. It's obviously the call prem + put prem, but the call = (spot-strike) + put. IOW, the call price includes the (one) put premium due to parity/zero-arb conditions.
